you are going to spend eternity.
Today's Memory Verse “Because that, when they knew
God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart
was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” Romans
1:21, 22 Quote of the Day “The evolutionists
seem to know everything about the missing link except the fact that it is missing.” G.
K. Chesterton Questions &
Objections “Where
do all the races come from?” Some
have wondered, if we are all descendants of Adam and Eve, why are there so many races? The Bible informed us 2,000 years ago
that God has made all nations from “one blood” (Acts 17:26). We are all of the same
race—the “human race,” descendants of Adam and Eve, something science is slowly coming to realize. Reuters news service reported the following article
by Maggie Fox: Science may have caught up with the Bible, which says that Adam and Eve are the ancestors
of all humans alive today. Peter Underhill of Stanford University in California remarked on findings published
in the November 2000 issue of the journal Nature Genetics...Geneticists have long agreed
there is no genetic basis to race—only to ethnic and geographic groups. “People look at a very conspicuous trait
like skin color and they say, ‘Well, this person’s so different’...but that’s only skin deep,”
Underhill said. “When you look at the level of the Y chromosome you find that, gee, there is very little difference
between them. And skin color differences are strictly a consequence of climate.” Cameron, Kirk ; Comfort, Ray: The School of Biblical Evangelism : 101 Lessons : How to Share Your Faith Simply,
Effectively, Biblically-- the Way Jesus Did. Gainesville, Fla. : Bridge-Logos Publishers, 2004, S. 450
Day by Day by Grace Moses
Pointing to the Lord for Battle Hear, O Israel: Today you are on the verge of battle
with your enemies; do not let your heart faint, do not be afraid,
and do not tremble or be terrified because of them; for the LORD your God is He
who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you. (Deuteronomy 20:3-4) Moses is another example of those who lived by grace in the Old Testament.
He knew the necessity of relying upon the sufficiency of God, instead of upon the inadequate resources of man. One illustration
of this is seen when he pointed Israel to the Lord for battle. When the children
of Israel would enter into the Promised Land, innumerable battles would lie before them. These battles were inevitable, since
godless nations had entrenched themselves in the land: "because of the wickedness of these nations
that the LORD your God drives them out from before you" (Deuteronomy 9:5). Thus, the history of Israel documents one battle after another. Moses announced the truth
that the people of the Lord need to hear as the battle draws near. "Today you are on the verge of battle
with your enemies; do not let your heart faint, do not be afraid,
and do not tremble or be terrified because of them." So often, when the warfare
appears, the foe seems invincible: "When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and
people more numerous than you" (Deuteronomy 20:1). The natural temptation is to "faint ...be afraid...tremble
or be terrified." Another temptation is to try to match the enemy horse for horse and chariot for
chariot. The Scriptures warn of the futility of turning to worldly resources. "Woe to those who
go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many,
and in horsemen because they are very strong, but who do not look to the Holy One of Israel"
(Isaiah 31:1). Moses knew that God's people need a reminder that the Lord wants to be our hope. When we
must go into the battles of life, the Lord accompanies us. "For the LORD your God is He who goes with you."
He is with us not only to comfort us, but also to battle on our behalf: "to fight for you against your enemies,
to save you." The Lord can fight for His people in an unlimited variety of ways. He can change
the hearts of those who oppose us. He can bring their plans to naught. He can trap them in their own evil plans. He can cause
our enemies to turn and devour one another. He can effectively save us in any manner that
He chooses. O Lord, my Defender, I face many battles that leave me intimidated
and fearful. My hope is often placed in my own worldly strategies or the help that man can offer. Lord, I look to You afresh
to fight for me and to rescue me any way You choose, for Your glory and honor, Amen. Here at Grace Alone Christian Assembly We
don't change the message, the message changes us.

American Minute with Bill Federer
August
31 Imprisoned twelve years for preaching without a license from the King, he wrote
Pilgrim's Progress, an allegory of a man named Christian fleeing the City of Destruction and directed by Evangelist to follow
a narrow path to the City of Zion. The friends and dangers he meets along the way inspired
the modern story Wizard of Oz. This classic was written by John Bunyan, who died AUGUST 31,
1688. It was translated into over a hundred languages and found in nearly every colonial American
home. Ronald Reagan, greeting Australia's Prime Minister, June 30, 1981, said:
"Robert Louis Stevenson wrote, 'We are all travelers in what John Bunyan calls the wilderness of this
world. And the best that we find in our travels is an honest friend-they keep us worthy of ourselves.'"
Franklin Roosevelt said January 19, 1936: "When Theodore Roosevelt died,
the Secretary of his class at Harvard, in sending classmates a notice of his passing, added this quotation from Pilgrim's
Progress: 'My sword I give to him that shall succeed me in my pilgrimage, and my courage and
skill to him that can get it. My marks and scars I carry with me, to be a witness for me that
I have fought His battles who now will be my rewarder.'"
Famous Last Words: Charles Darwin (1809–1882), English naturalist and father of the “Evolutionary Theory”: “I am not the least afraid to die.” Today's Grace Gem
I myself will help you!
(James Smith)
"For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says
to you: Do not fear; I will help you. Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob, O little Israel, for I myself will
help you," declares the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel." Isaiah 41:13-14
Wherever
the Lord leads us--He will support us; nor shall the difficulties of the
way, or the weakness we feel--be too much for us. His hand is stretched out to us, and it is for faith to lay hold
of it and proceed, confident of divine assistance.
His omnipotent arm is the protection of His people in
danger--and the strength of His people in weakness. He is "an ever-present help
in times of trouble". He is a God at hand. Are you weak, or in difficulty? Plead His Word; it is plain, positive,
and sure. He cannot lie. He will not deceive. His strength is made perfect, and is glorified in your weakness. Fear not, underneath
you are His everlasting arms!
He CAN help--for He is omnipotent. He WILL help--for He has given you His Word.
"Trust in the Lord at all times; yes, trust in the Lord forever, for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength!"
That strength is promised to you, and will be employed for you in answer to prayer.
Why
then are you so fearful? Why cast down? He says, " I myself will help you!"
